C419 Family Responsibility(1)

He looked at Mu Lingfeng, who was wearing a female outfit. His eyes were cold and gloomy. He said word by word, "So it is you!"

There was only a dim light flickering in the dungeon. The dim light hid Mu Lingfeng's pale face inside. Although the light was bright and dark, she could still see the disgust and coldness in Lyi Beichen's eyes. It was like a sharp blade had stabbed into her heart. A bone-corroding pain immediately spread throughout her entire body.

Hearing his question, Mu Lingfeng closed her eyes and covered the surging sadness inside.

Her lips trembled lightly and spat out a heart-piercing words, "Yes!"

As soon as this word left her mouth, a deathly silence spread out in the dungeon. Lyi Beichen felt that his heart was in so much pain that he could no longer feel it. He had experienced the numbness of blood once in his blood!

After a long while, Lyi Beichen's low and hoarse voice was enough to send a chill down a person's spine.

"Why?"

When he asked these three words, it was as if he had used up all his strength. Then, he leaned against the wall behind him. His eyes were half closed, covering all the sadness flowing inside.

Mu Lingfeng felt as if she was in a world of ice and snow. Her heart was very powerful. Waves of bleak and cold wind poured into her body, causing her heart to hurt.

When she heard Lyi Beichen's question, the corner of her mouth was tightly pursed, and her eyes were obscure and gloomy.

After that, she replied with a dry and hoarse voice, "I am a descendant of the Mu family. I should prioritize the Mu family's family. This is my innate mission and responsibility that cannot be shirked! Someone told me to do this to protect the honor of my family and my clansmen. I have no other choice. "

Lyi Beichen was enraged by this answer. His expression was gloomy and gloomy, and he was laughing with extreme anger." Your family's responsibility? Then you came close to me, drugged me, and imprisoned me here because of your family's responsibility? "

"That's right. As the disciple of Doctor Wang, I deliberately approached you, drugged you before the battle, and now, everything that you have seen is done by me!"

"Then why didn't you just kill me? What exactly do you want to do by imprisoning me here?"

Mu Lingfeng didn't expect Lyi Beichen to suddenly ask this question. A dark light flashed across her beautiful eyes.

Then she said bitterly, "I am only following orders. I have no way to tell you anything else!"

She did not want Lyi Beichen to continue asking and also did not want Lyi Beichen to know what she was thinking. But she could not let him go either, because she could not use the fate of the entire family as a wager!

Mu Lingfeng being so straightforward made the little bit of luck hidden deep in Lyi Beichen's heart completely disappear.

Huh! What was he looking forward to? Such an obvious thing, did he still hope that she had anything else?

Lyi Beichen, don't be silly!

"If I asked you to tell me who ordered you to do this, you wouldn't have said it, right?"

Mu Lingfeng's silence had told him the result. Although it was expected, Lyi Beichen still felt sad.

The moment of silence made Lyi Beichen adjust his mood. His eyes were filled with the murderous aura of the young Asura General, and his body also had the hostility of having experienced the battlefield for a long time.

"How long will this dungeon lock me up? What do you want from me? Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will find out about your Mu family? Or is the person behind you more powerful than His Majesty?"

This string of questions only returned to Mu Lingfeng's indifferent and distant words, "No comment, but at least you cannot die now.

A hunger strike? This kind of action really does not fit your image as a young general. Don't be like a shrew. Even if you die, please leave behind your last dignity and pride! That's all I have to say. You take care of yourself!"

Mu Lingfeng left after she finished speaking. Her words were like needles stabbing at the place Lyi Beichen was most proud of.

Lyi Beichen was so angry that his face turned ashen, but he also had no words to refute. Looking at Mu Lingfeng's back, all kinds of emotions surged in his eyes. It was a complicated scene.

In the end, Lyi Beichen still opened his mouth to eat. Mu Lingfeng let out a slight sigh of relief when she saw him like this. It was just that the feeling just now still hurt her heart. The corner of her mouth curled up into a bitter smile, and her eyes could not help but turn sour.

They could not go back anymore!

Mu Lingfeng had just returned to her room when a servant came to knock on the door.

"Third Miss, when the family head returns, go and find him."

"Okay, I understand. Let's go down first!"

Mu Lingfeng changed into a new set of clothes and walked towards the patriarch's courtyard. The Mu family in the Northern Region was also a famous family in the Holy Snow Country. However, in Mu Lingfeng's generation, the Mu family had gradually declined.

It was precisely because of this that they would listen to the orders of the Lan family like this!

Suddenly, a delicate voice was heard, "Where did Third Sister go? Grandfather has been looking for you for a long time. Why did you only come back now?"

Mu Lingfeng turned around and saw two people coming towards her. One was a man and the other was a woman. Both of them looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. Their expressions were ordinary and very similar.

The woman was wearing a lot of exquisite jewelry and looked like a walking jewelry store. When she looked at Mu Lingfeng, her eyes were flashing with jealousy and hatred. When the man saw Mu Lingfeng, his eyes flashed with an evil light. He sized Mu Lingfeng up and down.

The people who came were Mu Ziqi and Mu Zicheng.

Mu Lingfeng was the only direct descendant of the Mu family, but there were many sons and daughters of concubines in the Mu family. Mu Ziqi and Mu Zicheng had dragon and phoenix fetuses, and it was Aunt Liu who gave birth to them.

Aunt Liu's status was low, and she was the son of the Mu family, servant girl. However, she had followed Mu Xiong since she was young, and was later taken in as Aunt Liu by Mu Xiong. After that, she gave birth to these two siblings, and her status immediately rose. If it wasn't for her low status, she would have been raised as Madam Ping by now.

Mu Ziqi and Mu Ziqi were deeply doted on by Mu Xiong. In addition to being the eldest son and eldest daughter of the Mu family, their status in the Mu family was almost the same as the direct line daughter, Mu Lingfeng.

Mu Lingfeng's mother was the daughter of a noble family. However, when she gave birth to Mu Lingfeng, she died in a difficult birth. However, the current head of the Mu family was Mu Lingfeng's grandfather, Mu Zhentian.

Mu Zhentian paid great attention to the bloodline inheritance, and also paid great attention to the family's honor. Mu Xiong was a timid person, and he was addicted to women. It was difficult for him to become a big shot. As for his grandsons, only Mu Lingfeng, a direct descendant of the family, could take on a big role, so Mu Zhentian wanted to hand the Mu family over to her.

Because of this, Mu Lingfeng suffered from being ostracized and neglected in the Mu family. Especially her biological father, he treated her as his enemy.

"So it's Big Brother and Big Sister! Grandfather told me to go and settle some matters, that's why he came back now."

His expression was unreachable, and his words revealed how much importance the family head attached to her.

Mu Ziqi heard this and bit her lips as she stared at Mu Lingfeng with a gloomy expression. The jealousy and hatred in her eyes could be clearly seen. The embroidered handkerchief in her hand was tightly clenched and the tip of her finger was white.
